Little Italy

The Little Italy neighborhood is featured in GardenWalk 2018 on Sunday, July 8th ONLY, from 10am-5pm.

One of the city’s most enduring neighborhoods, Little Italy began as a community of Italian stone masons for Lakeview Cemetery. Today it continues to celebrate its Italian heritage while offering variable housing options for workers from nearby hospitals and universities. Garden spaces are many and varied in this one-square-mile area.
